I’ve been feeling sick this week, not much exercising going on, mostly coughing and sneezing and sleeping after work instead, but, I’m still losing weight. Probably because I’m still eating right. Just one more pound to go and I’ll be able to check this goal off.

How I did it: Ok, this may not be for everyone, but I used a meal replacement system - The Cambridge Diet. With loads of weight to lose, losing a pound or so a week just didn't provide enough motivation, so I took th drastic option and I've dropped 25 pounds in 5 weeks. I'm still on the diet and looking to lose around 30 pounds more. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I limited myself to 1500 calories a day spread over three meals at specific times and drinking 64 oz of water a day. I eat two granola bars and an apple for breakfast, a reasonable lunch, and a simple dinner of mostly chicken breast with a serving of rice & beans.Saturday was my cheat day, so I ate whatever I wanted, as long as it was still in correct portion. After a while, I found that the only food worth eating was food that tasted good. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Losing weight is something you really have to put a lot of time and effort into if you wanna do it safely. I think the major thing for me was that I got a gym membership and started going at least 2 or 3 times a week. I also started biking and watching what I eat. I mean, I didn't go on some crazy diet or anything. I just made a point of reading labels, watching my portion sizes, cutting down on snacks, and stuff like that. I also started… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I started with the Master Cleanse (aka Lemonade Diet). I lost close to 20 lbs in two weeks on this program. I gained 5 lbs back within a few days of putting food in my digestive system.I don't recommend the MC for the weight loss that occurs during the program, as it's rapid enough to be considered unhealthy. I tried it only because of the detoxification claims of proponents. Although I felt great at the end of the… Read how I did it…

SO I stopped focusing on losing weight. I changed my focus to feeling good, and decided to throw myself into a vegan eating lifestyle…..and in 2 weeks I had lost like 5lbs. Whoa! Even tho I have been too busy to go to the gym. I feel great, have more energy, and am way more focused. I am hoping to keep it up for at least another month…hmmm
2 more pounds away from reaching this goal. I promise myself that I won’t let the 4th of July derail my progress.
Nope, nothing wrong with my scale. Doc says I’ve lost 22 lbs., too. Yeah! Blood pressure normal, but that was never a problem. Blood has been drawn and in a few days we’ll see how my sugar levels are doing. Here’s to not being diagnosed with diabetes at age 30.
Another pound is gone and I am off to the doctor this morning for my three month follow-up. My life is completely altered since the last visit. This should be good.
Twenty-one down, four to go…I like the sound of that. I still have another twenty after that, but I don’t think of that. Focusing on five pounds at a time has been extremely helpful.
i keep hitting a plateau every five lbs i lose :( but this is the second one i’ve overcome and i am now down to 140, 20 more lbs to go! yayy.
AMGL is doing okay.
Better believe it. In two months, I have recovered all that I have lost. I could beat myself up for it, but instead, I am taking up an old goal I thought I had completed—conquering my sweet tooth.
HarlowvB is frustrated
So this morning I weighed in at 124.6, which is only 4 oz less than last week… I’m going to have to start being a lot more careful with what I eat, which is frustrating seeing as how I’m working out almost 2 hours a day to avoid having to do just that. I suppose that was wishful thinking.
Next week, with my new more extreme diet, my goal is to lose three pounds or more (which would make me 122). Wish me luck.
